Purposes of Data Processing

We process personal data to provide this website, to handle inquiries, to communicate with prospects and customers, and for the technical security of our online services.

Data Categories

Contact information you provide to us, and technical connection data generated when the website is accessed.

Legal Bases

Processing occurs under GDPR Article 6(1), specifically consent (a), contract fulfillment and pre-contractual measures (b), legal obligation (c), or legitimate interest in a secure and functional web presence (f).

Server Log Files

When you access this website, the hosting provider automatically records technical data, in particular the IP address, date and time of access, the page requested, the volume of data transferred, browser type, and operating system. This processing is necessary for the secure operation of the website and is based on GDPR Article 6(1)(f). This data is not merged with other data sources.

Contact Form and Email Contact

If you use the contact form, the data you enter, namely your name, email address, and message, is transmitted to the delivery service FormSubmit (formsubmit.co), which forwards the message to our mailbox. This may involve a transfer to a third country outside the European Union. The legal basis is your consent, given by submitting the form, together with our legitimate interest in processing your inquiry. You may alternatively contact us directly by email or telephone at any time. We retain your inquiry and the associated data for as long as required to process it and to comply with statutory retention obligations.

Fonts

This website uses the DM Sans typeface, served exclusively from our own server. No connection to Google servers is established, and no data is transferred to third parties when the font loads.

Data Recipients

Data is shared only for contract fulfillment, website provision, or legal requirements. The hosting provider and the contact form delivery service act as processors.

Storage Duration

Data is retained only as long as necessary for the respective purpose or as required by legal retention obligations.

Your Rights

You have the right to access, rectification, erasure, restriction of processing, data portability, and objection. Any consent given may be withdrawn at any time.

Right to Complain

You have the right to lodge a complaint with the Austrian Data Protection Authority, Barichgasse 40 to 42, 1030 Vienna.

Cookies and Analytics

This website sets no cookies and uses no analytics or tracking services. A consent banner is therefore not required.

For the duration of your browser session only, a technically necessary entry is stored in your browser's session storage, recording whether you selected the language yourself. It contains no personal data and is deleted automatically when you close the browser window.
